Bad Breath Treatment

Bad breath, or halitosis, is a symptom of oral health problems that can occur from time to time and in various conditions. When this condition doesn’t go away, it is called chronic halitosis. It can be considered a warning sign or message from your body. The primary symptom is foul-smelling breath that can be strong enough to be noticed by other people.

It’s a common issue that affects 1 out of 4 people, with approximately 31.8% of the population experiencing halitosis. If bad breath is affecting your social life, whether during presentations or board meetings in the office, or while chatting with friends, Puranik’s Dental Care offers exceptional and comprehensive treatment for bad breath.

3. Drinking Water

Drinking at least eight glasses of water a day is an excellent way to keep your mouth clean, as your mouth may become dry and sticky. It also helps reduce bad breath by washing away food particles and bacteria from your mouth.
